Quality characteristic of Kipfel cookies with 0, 20, 40 and $60\%$ of freeze dried chitosan-chungkukjang(CC), which was fermented for 24 hours at $40^{\circ}C$ with steamed soybean added with $0.25\%$ of chitosan(MW 2,025 kDa) powder and inoculated $2\%$ of Bacillus lichenifomis, were investigated Bulk density was higher in the CC cookie, but there were no difference among the CC cookies. While hardness was decreased, brittleness and springiness were increased in the higher ratio of CC, but no significant difference was observed in cohesiveness and gumminess. According to increasing the CC ratio, L$\ast$ values and hue angle were decreased from 62.69 and 96.71 to 44.41 and 69.30, respectively. While a$\ast$ values were increased from -1.94 to 4.95, and no changes were observed in b$\ast$ values. Glucosamine content was $27.34 mg\%$ in the control cookie, $40{\~}93.75 mg\%$ in the CC cookies. Antioxidant activity of the CC cookies were higher than the control. The activity of the control cookie was decreased during storage, while it was maintained in CC cookies. There were no differences in the sour, sweet and savory taste. Off-flavor did not detected in the $0{\~}40\%$ CC cookies, but the chungkukjang odor was slightly detected in the $60\%$ CC cookie. The $20{\~}40\%$ CC cookies did not affect on native odor of Kipfel cookie. Color acceptability also did not affect by addition of CC $20{\~}40\%$ but it was lower in $60\%$ CC cookie. Overall acceptability was the best in the $20\%$ CC cookie.

Quality characteristics of squid-sikhae prepared by four different methods(SHM: sikhae method, SHM-LA; sikhae method added with L plantarum, MM; mixed method of sikhae method and salting method, MM-LA; MM method added with L plantarum) were investigated during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The pHs of all the 6-days fermented sikhae samples were in the range of 4.01-3.76, meaning that there were no significant difference in pH according to the preparation methods. Number of total microbes(TM) were decreased, while the ratio of lactic acid bacteria against TM in SHM-LA and MM-LA was higher than those of SHM and MM. There were no differences in acid protease activity, while $NH_2-N$ content of SHM and MM were higher than those of SHM-LA and MM-LA. Amylase activity was the lowest in MM-LA. Proteins separated by SDS-PAGE belonged to 7-200 kDa, the major proteins (153<94<41 kDa) of the sikhae in all plots were disappeared at 6 days fermentation. In sensory evaluation, sour taste of MM was the highest, while it was the lowest in SHM-LA. Sweet taste, bitter taste, salty taste and hot taste were not significantly different Off-flavor was decreased in lactic acid bacteria added products. Scores of the softness and overall acceptability were the highest in SHM-LA. These results indicated that SHM-LA was the best method for the preparation of squid sikhae because of the enhancement of lactic acid fermentation and overall acceptability.

This study examined the chemical and sensory characteristics of Altari Dongchimi with inoculation of Leuconostoc citreum IH22. Dongchimi was stored at room temperature for the first day and at 4$^{\circ}C$ from 2nd to 28th day. The pH was somewhat lower in Altari Dongchimi when first inoculated with Leuconostoc citreum IH22 than non -treated Dongchimi. As fermentation proceeded, titratable acidity of Altari Dongchimi significantly increased. The patterns of microflcral changes in both the inoculated and the control were similar during fermentation: the total number of bacteria increased at the beginning, but rapidly decreased right after the optimum ripening point. The hardness and fracturability of both Dongchimi's decreased gradually during fermentation. The evaluation of the sensory qualities showed that the sour taste and fresh taste resulted in similar scores in both Dongchimi's but overall acceptability of the control was higher than that of inoculated one with Leuconostoc citreum IH22.

In this study, we compared the quality and sensory characteristics of 4 types of fresh tomatoes and 2 types of canned tomatoes, and then determined the most preferred quality characteristics and tomato type for the production of tomato sauce. The sample tomatoes were prepared by cutting after either peeling or heating for 5 min. Soluble solids were in the following order: Italian canned >American canned, Cherry> Vita king > Aranka > general tomatoes. The primary free sugars were fructose and glucose, and we determined that fructose and glucose were the most prevalent sugars in the cherry and American canned tomatoes. The total sugars, which were the sum of the fructose and glucose contents, were consistent with the soluble solid contents. pH was measured in the following order: general> Italian canned> Cherry, Vitaking> Aranka> American canned tomatoes. The most abundant amino acid was glutamic acid, and its content in the unheated tomatoes occurred in the following order: American canned> Italian canned> Vita king> Cherry> general tomatoes; however, after heating, the Vita king tomato was followed by the American canned tomato. The lightness (L value) of the fresh tomatoes tended to be higher than that of the canned tomatoes, and it decreased after heating. The redness (a value) of the unheated tomatoes was in the following order: Italian canned> American canned> Vitaking tomatoes; after heating, the Vitaking evidenced the highest values, followed by the canned tomatoes. The result of our QDA profile of sensory characteristics according to redness, aroma, sweet taste, sour taste, palatability, and viscosity was in the following order: Italian canned > American canned > Vitaking tomatoes, which evidenced the most balanced hexagonal shape. In the preference test, 2 types of canned tomatoes and Vitaking tomatoes were the most preferred among the fresh tomatoes. From the correlation coefficients among the sensory characteristics, canned tomatoes were the most preferred for the production of tomato sauce due to its high redness, flavor, palatability, and viscosity values. Vitaking tomatoes were the most appropriate among the fresh tomatoes.

This study was made to objectify the principle of oriental medical prescriptions so that we could obtain the principle and the formulation of them For that purpose, we analysed the formula and rule of 205 prescriptions recorded in Gum-goe-yo-rak, which have a few of components, and are widely used in clinical from ancient times to these days. At first we classified those prescriptions by their effect. Then we re-classified the herbs of the effect groups into four natures (cold, hot, warm and cool) and five kinds of flavors (sour, bitter, sweet, acrid and salty). And we classified the herbs into three grades - superior, medium, and inferior - which were used in Shen Nong's Herbal Classic. By these means, we statistically evaluated the prescriptions recorded in Gum-goe-yo-rak based on the Four Regular Components(Monarch, Minister, Assistant, and Laborer). As a result we could obtain some facts about the prescriptions recorded in Gum-goe-yo-rak, those are what kind of herbal material was used frequently and distribution of the natures flavors and grades according to thier effects. And we are sure that these results can be great help for establishment of fundamental formulation of theory of traditional herbal medicinal polyprescription.

Kacdugi fermented in the subatomospheric pressure(350mmHg) and polyethylene film package to improve the quality and to investigate the effect of fermentative control at $25^{\circ}C$. Brix degree, acidity, vitamin C content and number of total microbe and Lactobacilli was determined and also, the edible period of kacdugi was checked up by sensory assessment. The increasing rate of brix degree during kacdugi fermentation was high in the subatomospheric pressure, but decreased at the last period of fermentation as same tendency to the control, and it was preferably increased at the last period of fermentation in the polyethylene film package. However, the acidity was higher in the control than sbuatomospheric pressure but it was low in the polyethylene film package. Vitamin C content was high in the control at beginning and middle period of fermentation but high in sbuatomospheric pressure, and was low in the polyethylene film package at the last period of fermentation. The number of Lactobacilli was more in the subatomospheric pressure and polyethylene film package than the control, but it was suddenly incressed for the total microbe in the polyethylene film package at last period of fermentation. The edible periods of kacdugi by the sensory assessment of sour flavor, hardness and complex flavor was second days in the control. third days in the polyethylene film package, and fifth days in the subatomospheric pressure after soaking.

Quality characteristics of Yukwa, Korean traditional rice cookie, added with citrus peel (2, 4 and 6%) were investigated. Yukwa was prepared by adding the water homogenate of the peel and the quality characteristics were evaluated by the expansion rate, texture, color, sensory quality and content of total carotenoid, hesperidine and naringin. The expansion rate (1,517~855%) of Yukwa with higher concentrations of citrus peel powder was lower than that of control product (1,740%) and the brittleness followed the same trend. However, the values were in the range of those of the traditional Korean Yukwa. The color of the control Yukwa (L* value: 63.3~49.9, a* value: 10.6~17.8, b* value: 12.6~56.4) was white, but with citrus peel (2~6%) light yellow~yellow (L* value. 63.3~49.9. a* value: 10.6~17.8, b* values: 12.6~56.4). Carotenoid, hesperidin and naringin contents of Yukwa with the addition of peel powder were 0.18~0.51 mg%, 36.55~101.60 mg% and 24.65~70.81 mg%, respectively. The color and the overall acceptability of yukwa with 4% of citrus peel powder were the best. This combination had some orange flavor, but no differences in both sweet and sour taste.

The objective of this study was to investigate the sensory quality characteristics of coffee under various processing and roasting conditions of green beans. Colombia green bean samples were obtained from three processing methods: natural, pulped-natural, and washed methods. The green beans were roasted differently according to Agtron number: light (Agrton #65), medium (Agtron #55), and dark (Agtron #45). Moisture content, density, color value, pH, and total dissolved solid contents (TDS) were measured, and quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) with 23 sensory attributes was performed for nine coffee samples. Hunter L values were significantly elevated with the degree of processing but reduced with roasting intensity. The pH values of the nine coffee samples were 5.6~6.2 and significantly increased with intensity of roasting. TDS decreased with an increase in processing and increased with roasting intensity. QDA results show that smoky aroma and nutty and chocolate flavor significantly increased while fruit and floral aroma decreased with intensity of processing. The attributes of brownness, oily surface, smoky aroma, bitter and burnt flavor, and greasy and heavy mouthfeel significantly increased while fruity and floral aroma, black tea, sour and umami flavor, pureness, and softness decreased as roasting intensity increased. Principle component analysis showed the overall significant relationships between 23 sensory attributes and nine coffee samples under different processing and roasting conditions.

Pineapple flesh and core were added during fermentation to develop a new style of fruit makgeolli. Physicochemical characteristics were measured during fermentation, and sensory evaluation was performed after fermentation to estimate the quality of pineapple makgeolli. No significant differences were observed for pH, $^{\circ}Bx$, and alcohol contents between makgeolli with and without pineapple after fermentation. Total acidity of the pineapple makgeolli increased due to considerable elevation of citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, and pyroglutamic acid contents as well as slight elevation of lactic acid and propionic acid contents. On the other hand, the total amino acid contents of pineapple makgeolli were lower than those of control. The sensory preferences for pineapple makgeolli were higher overall than those for control, which can be attributed to the preferences for fruit flavor and sour taste in pineapple makgeolli.
